Love betrayed me while you did me wrong.
I don’t remember how many times I took the fall.

My own flesh and blood…
My pa and mama’s child…
Nothing for you is ever enough.
Yet I’m always stuck by your side.

You come home drunk, call me a slut.

I do what I do to feed you.
I do what I do to cloth you.

Ma and pa ain’t here anymore.
See what babying you more than me did to you??

All because of love…
Because of love you are what you are today.
Because of love I do what I do so I can feed us both for as long we live.
It’s all because of the love I have for you.
